SOLUTIONS 100% CORRECT !!!
Q: Once a patient in post-cardiac arrest care reaches the target temperature, how
long should that temperature be maintained?
A: The recommended duration for targeted temperature management is at least 24
hours. ✔✔
Q: A patient presenting with stroke symptoms for 2 hours has a clear CT scan (no
hemorrhage) and no contraindications for clot-busting medication. What is the
priority intervention?
A: Initiate fibrinolytic therapy immediately. ✔✔
Q: What is a key strategy for reducing the time spent without chest compressions
during a resuscitation attempt?
A: Keep performing chest compressions while the defibrillator is in the process of
charging. ✔✔
Q: During a Basic Life Support (BLS) assessment, what is the appropriate
timeframe for checking a patient's pulse?
A: The check should take no less than 5 seconds and no more than 10 seconds. ✔✔
Q: You are assessing a 58-year-old male with chest pain, a blood pressure of
92/50, and an oxygen saturation of 97%. Which diagnostic step is the most critical
to perform next?
A: Secure a 12-lead ECG. ✔✔
, Q: A 45-year-old patient recently treated with coronary stents presents with
crushing chest pain, hypotension (64/40), and low oxygen levels before collapsing
into Ventricular Fibrillation. What was the likely underlying cause?
A: Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). ✔✔
A 45yo man had coronary artery stents placed 2 days ago. Today,he is in severe
distress and reporting "crushing" chest discomfort. He is pale, diaphoretic, and cool
to the touch. His radial pulse is very weak, blood pressure is 64/40 mmHg,
respiratory rate is 28 breaths/min, and O2 sat is 89% on room air. When applied,
the cardiac monitor initially showed ventricular tachycardia, which then quickly
changed to ventricular fibrillation. In addition to defibrillation, which intervention
should be performed immediately?
